*

Statistically significant result (P < .05). Cingal demonstrated a significantly greater reduction in pain at this visit compared with both Monovisc and saline (P = .0168 and .0458, respectively), with no significant difference between Monovisc and saline (P = .9154).

+

Statistically significant result (P < .05). Cingal demonstrated a significantly greater reduction in pain at this visit compared with both Monovisc and saline (P = .0449 and .0231, respectively), with no significant difference between Monovisc and saline (P = .4782).

Post hoc power analysis results at 12 weeks: 55% (AL), 38% (AM), and 43% (LM).
